The descriptions of the models given in this handbook are based on the technical specifications at the time of writing. This hand-

book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models, but whether or not these are

fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the country where the vehicle is sold.

This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to be introduced later in the model year.

Throughout the manual, the “approved dealer” is your DACIA dealer.

Welcome aboard your vehicle

This Driver’s Handbook contains the information necessary:

– for you to familiarise yourself with your vehicle, to use it to its best advantage and to benefit fully from the all the functions and

the technical developments it incorporates.

– to ensure that it always gives the best performance by following the simple, but comprehensive advice concerning regular main-

tenance.

– to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring specialist attention.

about the vehicle and its functions and new features. If certain points are still unclear, our Network technicians will be only too

The remote control unit

operating range

This varies according to the environ-

ment. It is therefore important when

handling the remote control to ensure

that you do not lock or unlock the ve-

hicle by inadvertently pressing the but-

tons.

Interference

The presence of certain objects (metal

objects, mobile telephones, or an area

with strong electromagnetic radiation,

etc.) close to the key may create inter-

ference and affect the operation of the

system.

Replacement and additional keys

or remote controls

If you lose your remote control key

or require another, you can obtain

one from an approved dealer.

If a remote control or key is re-

placed, it will be necessary to take

the vehicle and all of its remote

control keys to an authorised

dealer to reset them.

You may use up to four remote con-

trol keys per vehicle.

Remote control key failure

Make sure that the correct battery

type is being used, and that the

battery is in good condition and in-

serted correctly. These batteries

have a service life of approximately

two years.

Refer to the information on “Radio

frequency remote control: Batteries”

in Section 5.

the vehicle

Never leave an animal,

child or adult who is not self-suffi-

cient alone on your vehicle, even for

please remember that the tempera-

ture inside the passenger compart-

ment increases very quickly.

RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS

ing off the ignition, a warning buzzer will

sound when a front door is opened (to

prevent the battery from discharging,

etc.).

ENGINE IMMOBILISER

This prevents the vehicle being

driven by anyone not in possession

of the vehicle’s coded ignition key.

Operating principle

The vehicle is automatically protected

a few seconds after the ignition is

switched off.

If the vehicle does not recognise the

coded ignition key, tell-tale light 1 will

flash continuously and the engine

cannot be started.

Any unauthorised work

carried out on the engine

immobiliser (computers,

wiring, etc.) could be dan-

gerous. Work must be carried out

by qualified personnel.

System operation

When the ignition is switched on, tell-

tale 1 lights up continuously for approx-

imately three seconds and then goes

out. The vehicle has recognised the

code. You can then start the engine.

Vehicle protection

A few seconds after the ignition has

been switched off, tell-tale light 1 will

flash constantly.

The vehicle will only be protected after

the ignition has been switched off.

Operating faults

After the ignition has been switched

on, if warning light 1 continues to flash

or remains continuously lit, there is a

system operating fault.

In all cases, it is essential to contact

an approved dealer as only they are

qualified to repair the engine immobi-

liser.

If the coded ignition key is faulty,

use the second key (supplied with

the vehicle).
